Children in day care facilities, anyone over 65 years of age, health care providers (doctors, nurses, rescue squad members) and others who work with the public (school teachers) should also consider immunization. There is a $5.50 charge for the shots, which are covered by Medicare and Medicaid. For more information about the vaccination, call the county health department (6753516).

Parents offer partnership' for learning By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Newt Staff Writer Parents, and how they can help the public schools educate their children or, as an alternative, their right to remove the children from school and teach them at home, dominated last Tuesday’s School Board agenda. Laurie Marshall and Douglas Baumgardner spoke to the board as representatives of the elementary school’s Parent Teachers Organization curriculum committee. They said they wanted to be involved in improving education at the elementary school and wanted to encourage the school’s efforts to emphasize “problem solving, cooperative learning and interdisciplinary learning.” Prior to last Tuesday’s meeting the group had sent a letter to the board members and had also sent them copies of a videotape of a Public Broadcasting Service program on “Schools that Work,” that profiled four schools across the country that have been very successful in teaching elementary and middle school students. “We want the learning and loving in our homes to be transferred to the school,” Mrs. Marshall skid. “We want to be a team with the teachers to make school more creative and positive.” She said that the movement of parents to be more involved in education is spreading throughout the country. “It’s in the air,” she said. As an example of interdisciplinary learning she noted that in Culpeper junior high students are learning about the Depression in math, English and history classes. “They are using the disciplines together,” she said. Mr. Baumgardner said he had been “ignorant” about issues in education “until my wife asked me to start reading up on learning. The more I read the more interested I was in the ideas in the letter.” He said the Richmond newspapers are praising Dr. Joseph Spagnola, the new State Superintendent of Education, for his efforts in “shaking up the bereaucracy at the State Department of Education.” “Educators need to stop thinking in traditional ways and pay more attention to how children learn,” he said. He said the curriculum committee is not so concerned with the content of the curriculum as with the methodology. “In problem solving you first learn how to learn,” he said. “That applies in the elementary school, the high school, college and the professions.” He said in law school it was not possible to learn all the case law that is needed in his practice of law. “I had to learn how to find answers, how to analyze a problem and how to research it. The same would apply to almost any undertaking.” In cooperative learning, he said, “Children learn from working with each other, and that’s not true just of students, but of teachers and parents too.” On interdisciplinary learning, Mr. Baumgardner suggested, “Take history and mathematics and put them together, rather than comparmentalizing everything.” He said he had a friend who is an engineer with no interest in history until he was “turned on to history by reading a history of science.” Mr. Baumgardner also suggested school activities be “developmentally appropriate. Do not encourage children to fail. Don’t let children be devastated by the idea of failure in early years. Let the concept of play take hold. Apply your principles to the play scenario, and the See PARTNERS, p.

The bushes sticking out of the water were growing on the river’s bank before Friday night’s rain. County roads cut by flooding ‘Sheets of rain’fell at estimated 1 ’’per hour By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Virginia Department of Transportation crews are working overtime to repair secondary roads in the county’s western end destroyed by flooding early last Saturday morning. County maintenance supervisor Ron Marshall estimated that “50 to 60 miles” of roads will need to be repaired as a result of the rains. The extent of damage runs the garnet, Mr. Marshall said, from roadways stripped completely down to bedrock, while others need merely a surface regrading to repair erosion ditches. Of the county’s 214 miles of secondary roads, he said, about 25 percent received some damage. There were no injuries reported as a result of the flooding, which began around 3 a.m. Saturday after heavy rains had been falling for several hours. Sperryville weatherwatcher Dennis Wingfield reported that the rain began shortly before midnight, and fell at the rate of one inch an hour until about 4 a.m. His rain gauge recorded a total of 4.17 inches of rain during the storm. About two dozen people left homes near the creeks, particularly Rappahannock News photo/Cindy Mahan THE ROY FAMILY in Harris Hollow suffered major damage to their home when the foundation wall collapsed under the weight of the rain-soaked ground.

Attorney General Terry offers government lesson By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Virginia’s Attorney General Mary Sue Terry came to Rappahannock County last Wednesday and stopped off to speak to high school government and business law students in an assembly. She compared Rappahannock to her home in Patrick County, at the southern end of the Blue Ridge Mountains. There were 550 students in her school, she said, in first through twelfth grade, and “we didn’t have a football team either." She said of the 36 students in her graduating class only two finished a four-year college education. She said people said her school was so small “we had to teach driver’s education and sex education in the same car.” But then she explained that the quip was just a joke — because her school didn’t offer either driver’s ed or sex education. Ms Terry said if anyone had suggested to her when she was a senior in high school in 1965 that she would one day be talking to high school students as the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Virginia, she would have given “a blank stare. There were no lawyers in my family; women were not getting elected statewide.” She said things have changed for young women and blacks since 1965. “There are more opportunities, and that’s the good news.” But, she added, there are also disadvantages for today’s teens. “There are things we were sheltered from,” she said. “The divorce rate was not as high. Fewer women worked, so there was more family stability. We didn’t have cable TV. The basic ways we got in trouble were driving too fast, and some of my classmates didn’t make it, and drinking beer. There was no marijuana or other drugs.” “There is not an adult in this room who knows what it is like to look at the world the way you do,” she added. Ms Terry explained that in her office she works with a staff of 138 lawyers and an .do the best you can. It’s the most we can ask of ourselves... and it’s all anybody else can ask of us.” — Mary Sue Terry Va. Attorney General equal number of support staff and handles about 16,500 cases per year. She said her office has tried to be “service oriented” and makes recommendations to the General Assembly in the areas of substance abuse, the environment and consumer issues. Then she offered to answer the students’ questions. Amy Kellert asked why men can be drafted and not women. Ms Terry replied that now there is no draft and no discrimination. Mitch Terry asked if it was legal to search student lockers. Ms Terry said she didn’t want to try to give a legal opinion without doing research, but she said the “courts and legislatures continue to struggle to balance the rights of individuals and the responsibility of the schools to provide a drug free environment.” Matt Eidson asked if it was legal to make students pay for stickers to park cars when education is supposed to be free. Ms Terry pointed out that the school system doesn’t have to provide for cars at all and that driving is a privilege. “Education is free, but you buy lunch, you buy or rent textbooks, you buy your yearbook.” Alice Reeve asked how she felt about possibly being the first woman governor of Virginia.

Dems' disarray means free ride for Warner By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newepapen Staff Writer Virginia’s Republican U.S. Sen. John W. Warner, facing no serious opposition for his Senate seat, will likely glide into his third term with transportation still among his top priorities. While other campaigning lawmakers are tangled in explanations for the fiscal fiasco plaguing the federal government and risk losing their bouts for re-election, Warner is expected to win the Nov. 6 election without a hitch. Campaign ’90 A survey conducted this month by the Virginia Commonwealth University shows Warner’s popularity still strong among Virginia voters with a positive response from 74 percent of those polled. Virginia Democrats, disappointed by former Gov. Gerald L. Baliles’ decision to return to the private sector, opted not to field a candidate to oppose Warner. Nancy Spannaus of Lovettsville, who is running as an Independent Democrat, represents Warner’s sole challenger other than write-in candidate Mark Yatrofsky of Norfolk. The incumbent senator’s low-key campaign continues to focus on transportation, an issue that has long been at the forefront of concerns for Northern Virginians. Warner said he will continue to work toward reducing commuter gridlock, and is the chief sponsor of Gridlock Relief legislation that would authorize $2 billion per year in federal funding for highway construction needs. His efforts to eliminate traffic congestion include promoting the proposed eastern and western bypasses around the District of Columbia. Warner lists the funding of the Metro system and Interstate 66 improvements among his record of achievement in Northern Virginia. In addition, Warner said he continues to strive to ensure that Virginia gets its fair share of Federal Highway Trust Fund dollars. “I will make every effort to see that Virginia gets its full measure of transportation funding,” said Warner, a Fauquier resident whose estate, Atoka Farm, is near Middleburg. As Congress continues to grapple with a federal budget plan, Warner said he is backing a proposal that will reach a balance between reduction in federal spending and increased revenues. On the international front, Warner, who serves on the Armed Service Committee, said that he is “hopeful that through negotiations and diplomacy, the situation (in the Middle East) will be resolved. I don’t want to see bloodshed.” Warner has been an advocate of arms control since 1972 and has been actively involved in defense issues. It was in this defense capacity that Warner persuaded the federal government to bail out Avtex Fibers Inc. of Front Royal two years ago when the company threatened to close down permanently. Company officials claimed that stiff competition and tough environmental regulation forced them to close the plant, which, at the time, was the sole supplier of carbonized rayon used by the U.S. defense and space program. Following a $38 million bailout, Avtex was exposed as one of the nation’s largest industrial polluters and eventually had its water discharge permit revoked by the state. The plant subsequently closed. Warner defended his role in the bailout, saying that it was a matter of national security to protect the only carbonized rayon producer. With a second source of rayon now available, Warner said that had he known the extent of Avtex’s air and water pollution, he would have insisted that the company resolve its environmental problems before it was permitted to continue operating. The GOP senator maintains that he is committed to environmental protection. “I am the only member of the Virginia delegation to serve on the environment committee,” Warner said, “I’m there to work to try to improve the environment.” Throughout his tenure as senator, Warner has been an advocate of senior citizens, stressing his commitment to long-term health care and more equitable prescription drug prices. Warner currently serves on the Environment and Public Works Committee, Armed Services Committee, Select Committee on Intelligence, Select Committee on Aging and the Rules and Administration Committee. This election represents the first time Warner has run for Senate unopposed. Warner captured 70 percent of the votes in the 1984 to overwhelmingly defeated Edythe Harrison, a former state delegate from Norfolk. Commenting on his lack of opposition this election year, Warner said, “I may have done a good job for the past 12 years. ” Gold Cup tickets on sale Tickets are now available through more than 20 outlets in Washington, Maryland and Virginia for the 1990 International Gold Cup Races scheduled for October 20 at Great Meadow in The Plains.

Board chairman Beverly Massie thanked the PTO committee for their interest and for sending the vi deotapes in advance of the meeting. “The schools would not be able to add enrichment to the curriculum if it weren’t for the support of the community,” she said. “You cannot reach children each in the same way. You have to tailor the method to the child and try more than one approach.” Mrs. Massie said she found it interesting to see how other schools present material to children. The staff at the elementary school and the administration will give the board recommendations on how to respond to the parents’ offer, she said. Later the board heard from Edwin Outright, president of the Home Educators Association of Virginia. He lives in Culpeper County and has been involved in home schooling since 1981, he said. He said that in earlier years “Rappahannock County was reputed to be a friendly place for home schooling. ” This year he said he had heard from two parents whose applications for home schooling mailed the first week in September had been turned down because they were received after the end of August deadline. “I cannot remember any county denying home schooling because the application was received a day or two late,” he said. “The overly rigid application of the August deadline is strained and nonsensical,” he said. Mr. Cutright said that a 1984 attorney general’s opinion gives discretion to school superintendents. He said that his group was also concerned about Rappahannock’s procedures for evaluating progress of students in home schooling. The law says that parents must submit evidence of progress by Aug. 1. The students in home schooling can come into the schools and take standardized tests with regular students or parents can arrange to have them tested by somebody else, not a parent or guardian. To continue in home schooling the student must test at the level of 40 percent or higher. The letters that parents approved for home schooling listed two people approved to administer standardized tests, Mr. Cutright said. “The superintendent does not have the authority to license a person as a tester,” he said. Mr. Outright acknowledged that the tester has to be acceptable to the school system, but said that for the Iowa standardized test, which is used in Virginia public schools, anyone with a four-year degree can give the test. “You can’t pick out two people in the county and license them as testers.” Mr. Outright said also, “If a parent does not want to submit a child to a standardized test, he’s supposed to have an alternative.” He said some children panic in testing situations and for them a subjective evaluation of a portfolio of their work would be more appropriate. He said that home schoolers are saving the taxpayers money by teaching their children at home and that most home schooled children do very well. “We see your policy as a bur WAKEFIELD SCHOOL’S 200 Family Yard Sale Sat., Oct. 20 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Indoor — Rain or Shine No Early Birds, please Rt. 522, Huntly, Va. 5 miles north of the Massie’s Comer Intersection of Rt. 211 & 522. 10 miles south of Front Royal On Site Parking (50# charge) ‘‘Everything you could imagine chat a yard sale would be!"

He urged the board to take a “more reasonable approach. Litigation is not nice,” he concluded. The School Board and School Superintendent David Gangel did not respond to Mr. Cutright’s presentation. In an interview the next day Dr. Gangel said that there is an increase in parents seeking home schooling for their children. He said that the law did not allow leeway from the August deadline for applications except when a parent moves into a community too late to make application on time or when there is a health reason for not meeting the deadline. Dr. Gangel said including the names of persons authorized to administer the tests was intended to be a help to parents and not intended to suggest no one else would be approved. Assistant Superintendent Robert Chappell, who deals with most applications for home schooling, said that about 50 percent of the parents mention religious reasons for requesting home schooling. He said he sees no trend in the other 50 percent and that the law does not require that a parent give a reason for seeking home schooling. Mr. Chappell said that there is a separate law allowing parents to seek a religious exemption from public education. In that case the parent must persuade the board he has a “bona fide” religious belief that prevents him from sending his child to school. If a religious exemption is approved the parent does not have to submit proof of the child’s academic progress. Library contract awarded By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Nearly three weeks after receiving 10 bids for construction of the new library, the Library Board voted to contract with Nielsen Construction Company of Harrisonburg for the building. Nielsen’s bid of $495,570 was the next to the lowest bid received for the project. Moss Construction Company, also of Harrisonburg submitted a bid of $478,570, $17,000 lower. During the interim members of the Library Board have been checking out the referrences submitted by the two lowest bidders. One of the referrences submitted by Moss was for a recreational building containing a swimming pool constructed at the Massartutten ski resort. Commonwealth Attorney Peter Luke said that since submitting the bid for the library Moss Construction sued Great Eastern Resorts Inc., developers of Massanutten, for not making the final payment for the project. Great Eastern countersued Moss for $750,000 for not completing the project and for poor workmanship. Library Board Chairman William Young said last Wednesday afternoon, “What we have determined to do is rank the two lowest bidders on the basis of the references we have on them, the bids themselves, the quality of their work, their supervision ability and their ability to keep up with work schedules.” Member Grace Sims made the motion to rank Neilsen number one and Moss number two and authorize architect Dwight Matthews and Mr. Luke to negotiate a contract with Neilsen. The motion passed three to zero. Members Mary Jamieson, who is traveling in Europe, and Lucia Kilby, who had a conflicting appointment, were not present for the vote but had been involved with checking out the two bidders. “The Library Board spent many hours investigating and evaluating these bidders,” Dr. Young said. He thanked the board members “who participated in this long process.” In negotiating the contract Mr. Luke will be making certain that it complies with all the requirements for a project using Federal funds. Mr. Mathews will be exploring with Neilsen how the project can be changed to lower the cost. The board will have to meet again to approve the contract. Members expressed hope that construction can begin before the end of October. The funds collected so far will build the library but not furnish it, Dr. Young reported. “The fund drive will definitely continue.” CLASSIFIED 1-800-852-4797 NEWS FLASH!!

Development plans must be reconciled with the county’s Comprehensive Plan, which serves as the essential roadmap to our future. 2) Education standards should be steadily raised and facilities updated in recognition that education is the key to unleashing the potential of our youth. 3) New business and clean industry for economic expansion should be actively sought to provide new employment opportunities here for our residents and their children, under conditions which ensure that these businesses are self-supporting, not a burden on the tax base. Tourism and the businesses that support it should be strongly encouraged, since they provide revenue without the attendant major public services demanded by other industries. 4) Volunteerism, a hallmark of those who live in this proud and independent community, will be supported and encouraged as a continuing reflection of the strong timber and fierce spirit of the Rappahannock heritage. 5) Recognizing that none of these objectives may be realized without a vigorous, democratic local government, this newspaper will remain politically independent and independently investigate any abuse of public trust by public officials. A job well done Last weekend, one-quarter of the county’s secondary - roads were affected by the torrential rains which innundated the county. Before dawn Saturday, road crews were out, closing roads flooded by high water and surveying damage. The crews continued to work throughout the weekend. The crews’ efforts have wron the praise of County Administrator John McCarthy, School Superintendent David Gangel, Emergency Services Coordinator Dieter Knuepfer, as well as the county’s residents. To their praises, we add our own — along with our thanks.

These Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were picked at the Brunes’ farm in Huntly. Letters to the editor Mr. Bird rebutted To the editor: In his “Letter to the editor” of Oct. 4, Lee Bird, among other points made, suggested two things: that defense spending of almost $300 billion a year under the Reagan administration simply added substantially to the national debt while Social Security and related health entitlements not only paid their way but showed a profit. He mentioned that under President Carter defense spending was only $100 billion a year. Democrats have a convenient way of forgetting facts they do not like while spotlighting in a distorted way those they do. For example: FACT: Defense spending under President Carter was cut back so drastically that our military and intelligence services could not do their job properly. As a direct result the Soviet Union seized control in ten more countries, including Afganistan, knowing the U.S. was too weak to respond. It was also during the Carter years that inflation approached 13 percent, the prime rate of almost 21 percent, and the value of the dollar abroad was the lowest it has been in years. FACT: During the Reagan years our defense structure was dramatically strengthened and research was begun on the Strategic Defense Initiative (Star Wars). There were certainly other factors at work in the Soviet Union, but SDI coupled with a strong U nilitary finally convinced th- ets that they could not outgu, So alti._ huge amounts of money have been spent during the past 40 years to protect us and our allies from the threat of Soviet military adventures, we can certainly show a “profit” from those expenditures in that WE ARE ALL HERE!! No cities have been decimated from nuclear attack, the millions of casualties that would have ocurred did not, vast expanses of the globe that would have been contaminated from nuclear fallout resulting from such a war are still alright. Wasn’t that expensive insurance premium well worth the cost when you consider the alternatives? And don’t forget, for all be a few of those 40 years the U.S. Congress was controlled by the Democrats — fine, loyal, clear-headed Democrats (some of them) who saw the threat and knew what had to be done just as the Republicans did. So why now blame the Republicans for the cost of the insurance which in a very real way saved the world for all of us? Having paid for insurance on your house for 40 years do you regret that your house did not burn down so that you could have gotten something back on your investment? In fact haven’t we all seen a dramatic “profit" on our investment just this past year as we watched the Soviet-East Europe house start to fall down? Cannot we now breath a little easier even as we look to a new madman in Iraq and wonder at the damage he will do before he is stopped? And now about Social Security, which Mr. Bird says has shown a profit. Why has it? Because we all paid Social Security our taxes every payday, that’s why! We have each shown a sense of responsibility in contributing to a fund to help us in our retirement years. Now, how about the billions of dollars that have been spent on housing for the poor, on crime, on the drug war, on education, on food stamps. Have those investments shown a profit? In no way! In each of these categories there has been a major loss. Why? Unless people are willing to assume responsibility for their own circumstances (except those who are physically or mentally incapable) and try to improve their lot as the rest of us try to help them, there can be no “profit.” Welfare and a free handout are not guaranteed for life. Responsible citizenship is the key to a healthy democracy. That is one of the principles of the Republican Party and that is why I want to reelect French Slaughter to Congress. RODERICK I. SWEET Washington Thanks for support To the editor: The Amissville Volunteer Fire Department wishes to express appreciation to you for the excellent press coverage of the Firemen’s Festival on Sept. 29 and 30. The Department is grateful to everyone who contributed to the success of its first festival, celebrating the village’s 180th birthday. An estimated 2,500 persons attended. All monies received by the Department will be used wisely to insure the health, protection and safety of the community. A special thanks goes to our elected officials, Congressman D. French Slaughter, State Senator Kevin Miller, Delegate Raymond R. “Andy” Guest, and Supervisors Ellis Bingham and Brad Rosenberger who gave unselfishly of their time to attend and listen to concerns of the community. Continuous music was provided throughout the weekend. Entertainers donating their time and talent included “Servants of Mercy,” “The Half Tone Blues,” “All the Kings Men,” “Chain Reaction,” (they also provided the portable stage), “Ambush,” “Free Spirit,” “McGlothlin Melodies,” Guitarist Warren Dennis, “Virginia Travelers,” and “Allen, Eckert, Corbin & Key.” Sponsors included Thistle Hill Bed and Breakfast, The Inn at Little Washington, along with Countryside Floor Fashions which sponsored in part the live broadcast by WQRA Radio. The petting zoo was provided by Wilson’s Pet Farm of Winchester and The Wonderful World of Miniature Horses of Madison. Gift certificates were provided by Bleu Hock Inn, Washington; The School House Restaurant, Flint Hill; Lom-Bar-Dys Restaurant, Amissville; and Western Sizzlin, Warrenton. Also included in the drawings were large bottles of Alpenglow donated by Linden Beverage Co. and two hand-painted egg ornaments by Gertie Poling. We are also grateful to Fauquier Hospital Lab for processing the blood cholesterol samples for the small fee of $5. The Health Booth was manned on Saturday by Culpeper Health Department registered nurses Cheryl Humes and Kate and Gloria Driscoll. Lori Pfalzgraf and Sonja Early assisted with registration. On Sunday the Health booth was manned by Shock Trauma Technicians Sharon and Sheila Scott of the Amissville Volunteer Rescue Squad and Rappahqpnock Health Department registered nurse Mar ion r acchina. Everyone was thrilled that the Pegasus med-evac helicopter was available to land on Sunday afternoon. It was amazing to learn that Pegasus can make the trip to Charlottesville in 15 minutes. A special thanks also to Richard Pierson for designing the posters, award certificates and “dash boards” for the antique-classic auto show winners, and to the owners who displayed their vehicles, many driving great distances. Lorraine Early came to the rescue by copying more programs when we ran out. Emma Swatman of Red Barn Antiques loaned us her folding signs on which we placed festival posters. Historical data and quilt display were provided by Mrs. Katherine Walter Riley, a direct descendant of the Amiss family. Amissville United Methodist Church loaned their tables to accommodate the many crafters who came from near and far to participate in the festival. Awards Crafters of Fairfax donated the antique car dash boards. The Sportsmen’s Booth display of mounted trophies was provided by Mike Smoot, a local taxidermist, Wes McGlothlin and Robert and Carrington Smith. Honorary Fire Chief Amy Kellert, Jr. Miss Jennifer Pullen, and Little Miss Stephanie Stuart distributed programs. It was not my intention if I have overlooked anyone. The many auxiliary, fire, and rescue volunteers did an outstanding job. I would like especially to thank my assistant Cathy Smith. It was she who did so much of the legwork in contacting participants, officials, newspapers, writing copy, collecting donations, organization, placing posters, and who worked unceasingly throughout this endeavor. GINNY PIERSON Festival Chairman, Amissville VFD Slaughter's head in sand To the editor: For those voters who care about our rapidly deteriorating environment the following should provide compelling reason to get French Slaughter out of Congress. In 1989 Congressman Slaughter voted against stronger federal protection of the last large stands of uncut rainforest in North America. A heavily subsidized Forest Service timber program now threatens this spectacular old-growth forest, in Alaska’s Tongass National Forest. Again last year, not long after the Exxon Valdey spill, Rep. Slaughter voted against state’s rights to have stronger oil spill legislation than the current federal standard. Rep. Slaughter also voted in favor of an amendment that will result in oil and oil shipping companies being able to use less care in the production and shipping of oil and still be protected from having to pay the full clean-up cost of their spills. The taxpayers and the environment will bear the lion’s share of the burden of clean-up. Last year Rep. Slaughter voted against establishing new wilderness areas in Nevada and, in other legislation, against reserving water rights in designated wilderness areas, which would assure that these lands have sufficient water to fulfill their wilderness purposes. On irresponsible federal spending, Robert Darby has written in these pages that Rep. Slaughter is one of the few Members of Congress “willing to take the deficit seriously.” The record states that Rep. Slaughter, in 1989, voted for massive military spending on Star Wars, See LETTERS, p. A-5

Letters Continued from page A-4 the Stealth Bomber, the MX rail plan, and the Midgetman missile: all multi-billion dollar weapons systems designed to fight a nuclear war against the Soviet Union, all of which are under serious question by expert military and civilian technicians. The record speaks for itself. French Slaughter has his head in the sand and these days such a failing is a grave danger to all of us. STELLA CADWALADER Woodville CCLC's dedicated staff To the editor: I want to take this opportunity to thank the staff of the Child Care and Learning Center for the exceptional job they are doing here with our children. The patience, empathy, and sense of humor they maintain throughout the day makes it a very pleasant place to work, and makes the Child Care and Learning Center much more than just a “safe haven” for our children. As we have heard time and again from our Licensing Specialist, from the Virginia Council on Child Day Care and Early Childhood Programs, and from Attorney General Mary Sue Terry during her tour last week, the Child Care and Learning Center is a model program for the state. I was so pleased that our Licensing Specialist wrote that our staff of 10 full-time and seven part-time people “is warm and supportive and interacts with the children with sensitivity and concern.” She went on to say that we “continue to provide a wonderful variety of developmentally appropriate activities for all the children.” Of the 54 centers she is responsible for, we are one of the two that is NAEVC accredited, and she suggests to all of her clients opening day care facilities that they should come to CCLC to observe for a day! I must also commend the staff for its continued efforts in the area of professional development; we have four women attending another college course at night, five women working on their Child Development Associate degree, and the rest of the staff attending professional workshops. These dedicated staff members are guaranteeing that we have the most qualified day care staff in our region. Their efforts in professional development do not go unnoticed. I have found it to be a real privilege to work with the staff as a director as well as a parent. I am proud to represent CCLC as its director, and I am proud to have my children enrolled. ROSE ANN SHARP Washington Small business owners get 'stuck' regularly To the editor: Many people will find something strangely familiar about consumer outrage over escalating fuel prices — the deep resentment and dark suspicion that the price tag of an essential commodity is way too high, and costs are being manipulated by powers beyond our control. The same feelings arise regularly among the 11,500 Virginia smallbusiness owners the National Federation of Independent Businesses represents in Richmond. In their case, however, the outrage is caused when Congress or the General Assembly decides to stick small-business owners with the bill when they’re unable to come up with any other plan to pay for society’s short falls. With this being a Congressional election year, business owners have little reason to hope for an early end to their sticker shock. Instead, candidates across the country are campaigning in support of such proposals as mandated parental leave, among others. Seldom will they mention the price tag or who will have to pay it. Unfortunately, it’s often the smallbusiness owners down the street who get stuck with the tab, and they have no more control over these costs than does anyone who pulls into a gas station today. Our members are sometimes portrayed as taking hard-line positions against such proposals. We do it to help make it possible for men and women to pursue the dream of running their own businesses, providing jobs and, hopefully, gaining some profit to benefit their own families. Constant increases in operating costs mandated by government give business owners good reason to wonder for whom they’re working and why they work so hard. These price hikes at the gas pumps are but a high-profile representation of what small-business owners endure everv day. Maybe it will give our fellow citizens an idea of what it’s like to walk in their shoes. JOHN R. BROADWAY State Director, NFIB Richmond Women represented? To the editor: Voters going to the polls in November, and women especially, need to ask questions. How well is our congressman, D. French Slaughter Jr., representing us? How do his House votes reflect the reality of most women’s lives? Our congressman voted to sustain the President’s veto of the Family Leave bill. The bill entitled employees to family leave in certain cases involving a birth, an adoption or a serious health condition and to temporary medical leave in certain cases involving a serious health condition with adequate job and benefit protections. With 232 votes to override and 195 against, the House sustained the veto on July 25. (A twothirds vote is required to override a President’s veto.) He voted for an amendment to eliminate all child care provisions and replace them with an increased earned income tax credit on Oct. 5, 1989. The amendment was rejected 140-285. He voted against the civil rights bill amending the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to restore and strengthen civil rights laws that ban discrimination in employment. The bill passed the VDOT's 'herculean' effort To the editor: On behalf of the School Board, students, and faculty of the Rappahannock County Public Schools I would like to express our sincere appreciation to the Virginia Department of Transportation, Rappahannock Area Headquarters and to the Transportation Maintenance Superintendent, Ronald Marshall, for their herculean efforts to restore the county’s damaged roads following the flood on the morning of Oct. 13. Due to the hard work and commitment by the Department of Transportation, the Rappahannock County Public Schools were able to be in session on Monday morning and buses were able to serve all but one family. This type of effort and the ongoing cooperation within the County contributes toward making Rappahannock County one of the best places to reside. Again, thanks to Mr. Marshall and the employees of the Department of Transportation for their effort, commitment, and service to Rappahannock County. DAVID M. GANGEL Superintendent Sperryville Thank you To the editor: I would like to take this time to say “Thanks” to the Virginia Department of Transportation, in our area, for their quick work and many hours that they have already spent on area roads. Though they are far from finished they got in there and worked hard to get the roads back in operation again. Thanks and keep up the good work. ELLEN PULLEN Washington House 272-154 this past Aug. 3. He voted for an amendment to ban use of Federal or DC tax revenues to provide abortion funding for poor women. The amendment was defeated 206-219 on Aug. 2, 1989. He voted against a motion to concur in the Senate amendment permitting use of federal funds for abortions for victims of rape or incest. The amendment was approved 216-206 Oct. 11, 1989 and then vetoed by George Bush on Oct. 21. Mr. Slaughter voted against a motion to override the President’s veto. The override motion failed 231-191 Oct. 25,1989. Our congressman voted against concurring in a Senate amendment to contribute funds to the United Nations family planning services program. The motion was approved 207-200 Nov. 16, 1989. How well is our Seventh District congressman representing women? ELAINE B.

She said she hadn’t been asked that one before and pointed out that she hasn’t declared her intention to run for any new office. “It’s gratifying,” she said, “but it’s not too helpful to look too far down the road.” Jennifer Tomedon asked about the right to appeal when you can’t be tried twice for the same crime. Ms Terry explained that if she was charged with speeding in Juve nile and Domestic Relations Court and the trial went against her, she could appeal to the Circuit Court and get a new trial, but if the first trial went in her favor the Commonwealth could not appeal for a new trial. Heidi Maeyer asked Ms Terry to describe a typical day in her job. She answered that it depended on whether she was in or out of her office. She said she travels outside the office about two days out of the five doing things like talking to school groups and meeting with clinets and constituents. In her office she meets with lawyers on her staff and people from outside the staff who want to talk with her. She says her days are full and she frequently works nights and weekends. “So you don’t actually have cases yourself," Amy Kellert commented. Ms Terry said at any one time there are usually about 5,000 cases ongoing in the AG’s office. She explained that she meets with the lawyers on her staff to plan policy and strategy, but doesn’t try any particular cases. “There are some cases I would love to try,” she said, “but it would not be in the overall best interests of the office. If I showed up for one case and not another, the judge would think the other case was not as important, and people would accuse me of using the office for politi cal purposes.” Susan Estes asked if the students had any right to appeal the school administration’s decision not to lower the speed bumps on school property. Ms Terry answered that she thought the students couldn’t appeal that decision. Michelle Raynor asked if she had ever been to the White House. Ms Terry said the had been to the White House in March to a meeting with state Attorney Generals, and was somewhat surprised when the President greeted her by name. “But then I remembered there were two occasions when he came into Virginia to campaign against me. He’s a real nice person even if he is a Republican,” she said. She concluded by telling the students that they would probably have to continue to live with the speed bumps, parking fees and book rentals, “but in time you will make more and 'more of your own decisions. There is one choice you can make every hour and every 15 minutes, and that’s the choice to do the best you can. It’s the most we can ask of ourselves; it’s the least we can ask of ourselves, and it’s all anybody else can ask of us.” Following her stop at the high school Ms Terry visited the elementary school and the Child Care and Learning Center for tours.

Sheriff John Henry Woodward reported two water rescues by county volunteers, both in the Laurel Mills area. One driver was rescued from a car stuck in high water on Route 729, and another car and several people were pulled from the rising water on Route 618. No one was injured. Among the roads flooded were U.S. 211 west of Sperryville, Route 618 in Castleton, where the water covered the road for about 100 yards, and portions of all the roads in Old Hollow, Gid Brown Hollow and Harris Hollow. The only serious damage to structures was in Harris Hollow, where the back basement wall of the Roy family’s home collapsed into the basement under the weight of the rain-soaked earth behind it. The family was evacuated, and according to Social Services workers, is requesting the community’s assistance to help clean out the basement and rebuild the foundation. County emergency services coordinator Dieter Knuepfer estimated damage to the Roy’s home at about $55,000. in Sperryville, the Ihomton River eroded about five feet of riverbank at John Shipman’s Woodsmoke Cafe, undercutting a storage shed near the bank and leaving it hanging out over the river. Col. Knuepfer estimated the damage there at about $5,000. One bridge, on Route 614 in Gid Brown Hollow, will have to be replaced because the water undercut its abutments and left it too dangerous to use. The tar and gravel surface on the bridge approaches was stripped off in a sheet by the water, and was left folded in a pile in the weeds beside the bridge. Maintenance chief Marshall said the bridge will be closed until it can be replaced, which he said he hopes will be finished in four to five weeks. Mr. Marshall reported Tuesday that his crews’ first priority, to reopen all roads into at least “passable” condition, had been accomplished. The crews, he said, will now concentrate on repairing the damaged roadways, with priority given to the roads which serve the greatest number of motorists. “The only thing I ask is that people be patient. We have so many things to do, and we only have 14 people. It’s impossible to get all the requests answered this quickly.” The newly-appointed supervisor had high praise for his crews, which began arriving at the maintenance shed outside Washington before dawn Saturday. “I would like the crews to get all the credit. They responded immediately, and they worked with me to get the job done.” He singled out his foreman, Ennis Jenkins of Washington, for particular praise. “He was the first one I called. He stayed out all day Saturday, and all day Sunday. That man should get some recognition.” Mr. Marshall estimated that the total cost of repairing roads damaged by the storm will be $200,000 to $250,000, including $35,000 to replace the Route 614 bridge. The torrential downpour, which residents described as “sheets of rain,” was caused by tropical storm systems moving northwest from the Carribean area. According to David Stooksbury, a research assistant with the State Climatologist’s office in Charlottesville, the storms brought moisture collected over the Atlantic, and as they moved inland they began to drop the moisture as rain. “By the time the storms reached Central Virginia, they were no longer tropical storms. But they still had many characteristics of tropical storms, particularly the ability to drop large amounts of rainfall.” Of the four factors which can produce rain, Mr. Stooksbury explained, three were working last Saturday morning to produce heavier than normal rainfall. The storms themselves, with their load of moisture, rode up against the eastern slope of the mountains. As the storms gained altitude, the moisture cooled and condensed into rain. The presence of a stationary front in the area, he added, also enhanced the rainfall. The rain, Mr. Wingfield added, fell on saturated ground which had already received more than 3 1/2 inches of rain during the previous three days. County Administrator John McCarthy said that despite the isolated severe damage, the county probably will not qualify for disaster assistance. “It’s a ‘Catch-22’.” Without a large number of people affected, no disaster will be declared. “But it is still certainly a disaster to those few affected.” Mr. McCarthy echoed the praise offered by other officials for the county residents who offered assistance as the water rose. “I can’t say enough for the highway department, the fire and rescue services, and the others who pitched in to help.”

CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Long before television, video, compact disc and cassette recordings, there was radio. Before audiences sat down to watch favorites like “The Dick Van Dyke Show” and “Father Knows Best,” radio shows captured th& family audience and kept them spellbound nightly. Those were the days of “The Shadow,” the alter-ego of Lamont Cranston, private detective; those were the days before anyone saw Tonto with the Lone Ranger as they too were radio characters, their voices booming into living rooms across the nation as family ears listened and radio audiences sighed, gasped and cheered their heros to victory. Ihose old radio days were the days when the audience was as important as the show. Long before canned laughter and closed circuit television, the audience provided the background for acts like Lulu Bell and Scotty or Abbott and Costello or The Lone Ranger. Their participation was cued by station directors, completing each act. Many may remember the “Golden Age of Radio,” feeling it’s a time long past. Past it may be - forgotten it is not. On stage, it lives still. The Rappahannock Players, in cooperation with Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community (RAAC), will bring back many of these old radio names and faces in their upcoming production, “On-The-Air,” Oct. 19, 20, 26 and 27, for one show nightly at 8 p. m. “We decided to do this last spring,” Players’ president Mitch Hostetter said of the production, adding it was not until summer that the idea was fully organized. “I really like old-time radio and old music and we (the Rapphannock Players Committee) thought it might be fun to do,” she added. From the idea, the script has been complied and the lost radio acts rediscovered. “We’ve written a great deal of the stuff,” Mrs. Hostetter said, adding a section of the show has come from the extensive library of Richard Pierson. Mr. Pierson has a collection of over 20,000 recordings beginning with the first recordings in the last 19th century. His Amissville based library houses musical favorites of several eras. “We have used many items from Dick’s collection,” she said, adding the acts are reproduced by Ideal talent while several orchestra selections and musica’ pieces are originial recordings. The production, on stage at Gay Street Theater in Washington, begins in 1990 with a 90-year-old woman falling into Rappahannock News photo/Lisa G. Currie AMISSVILLE’S DICK PIERSON has provided technical assistance and recordings from his vast library for the Rappahannock Players’ production, “On the Air.” The record he displays is a “wallhanging,” one of the many elaborate designs produced by record companies in the 1920s. sleep only to dream of the radio days of her youth. The play spans more than 20 years of radio from 1927 through 1949, covering a vast period of time in both radio programs and music. While the elderly lady dreams the characters bring alive the radio of yesteryear. “This is a real community production,” Mrs. Hostetter said, explaining that while the .group, Rapphannock Players, is a coming together of several local people who enjoy acting and the theater, this production has brought people from all walks of life and all ages. “The youngest would be elementary school children,” she said, adding the oldest is Waldron O’Connor, a familiar face and veteran of Rappahannook Players’ productions. With a cast of 16 to 18 people, several other faces will also be familiar to the audience but many new faces will be on stage for the first time in this one and one half hour two act production. “Many things in the show are homegrown,” Mrs. Hostetter said of the script, giving away little inside information on the performance but promising a local soap opera, entitled “ ‘Rotten Apple’ and several other acts I just don’t want to give away,” she said with laughter surrounding her secrecy. “Everyone will be doing a bit of everything, this time,” Mrs. Hostetter said of the production, emphasizing the effort the community has put into the show. “We even have volunteer props and sets,” she said, adding the effects only make the show more interesting. And while the set is a filled with attic remnants of yesteryear, matching the music and feeling on stage, the audience should also take their part. We are asking the audience to dressup,” Mrs. Hostetter said, again emphasizing the importance of the radio audience before sound stages and tapes. “We want the audience to wear things of the eras,” she said, adding anything from flappers to Joan Crawford look-alikes are possiblities. “There may even be a prize for the best costume,” she added, saying with Halloween so near, having the audience wear costumes seems even more appropriate. Keeping with the community aspect, the president said proceeds from this production will benefit the theater itself. “We want to restore the stage and lighting,” she said. Tickets for the production are $7 per person and can be purchased at several locations in Rappahannock and surrounding counties. For a list of ticket outlets, call the RAAC hotline at (703) 675-3073 or contact the office at regular business hours, Monday through Wednesday and Friday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., at (703) 675-3193. “We encourage people to come on Friday night,” Mrs. Hostetter said, adding often people wait until Saturday and the show sells out. This is the 10th year for the Rappahannock Players. Other productions include several one-act plays, locally written productions and Broadway productions including “The Lion in Winter,” “Peter Pan,” “Harvey,” “Wait Until Dark,” and others. Weekend features house tour, flower sale It’s the third weekend in October, and for the past 33 years in Rappahannock County, this has meant the Annual House Tour and Dried Flower Sale, sponsored by the Churchwomen of Bromfield Parish, Trinity Episcopal Church in historic Washington. The 34th of this series of popular events takes place this Saturday, Oct. 20 and Sunday, Oct. 21, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Trinity Parish Hall will be headquarters for the tour and the dried flower sales room. Available here will be tickets, flower arrangements and box lunches by the ladies of W ashington Baptist C hurch. Block tickets for three Mouses and tea are $10, single houses $3.50. The hundreds of flower arrangements have been prepared by the Women of Bromfield Parish, members of the Rappahannock County Garden Club and others. Situated one half mile south of Route 626 and two miles off U.S. 211 is The Oaks, home of Bob and Joan Herrema. The original four room log house was built in 1949 in a grove of about 40 oaks, some of which are still standing. A dining room and pantry were added on the south in 1824. The two story Victorian addition on the north dates from 1864. The log house was built by a Mr. Strother as a Rectory for one of the several Episcopal “chapels of ease” in the area at that time, located to make church attendance easier. The home had housed four generations of Slaughters, the last being Anne Slaughter Keyser. Mr. Herrema specializes in home restoration and renovation and The Oaks is a beautiful example of his work. The dividing wall between the two rooms on the lower floor of the original house has been removed and walls and ceilings laid bare. This is now the kitchen/sitting room with 12 inch to 16 inch locust logs 18 to 30 feet in length, exposed. In the south wall of this room is the original large, shallow fireplace. In the ceiling are beaded beams, hand hewn like the logs in the walls and held in place with wooden pegs. The 200 year old pine floors have been restored to their warm golden color. The view to the mountains in the west is lovely and only slightly distorted by the original, handmade window panes. The Victorian addition boasts a lovely graceful stair case with walnut bannister and newel post. At the time the chapel still stood on the property, near the stone marker to the right front of the house, Queen Anne of England presented the congregation with a silver dipper which was kept chained to an oak at a spring to the north of and slightly below the house; the oak is still there and is known as the “Dipper Oak.” In addition to the house tour and flower sale, tea will Photo courtesy of Dr. William Young THE OAKS, HOME of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Herrema in the Tiger Valley, is the third house on this year’s House Tour. be served from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. in historic Washington House on the corner of Main and Middle Streets in Washington. This is one of the original houses of the county and one of the oldest remaining “ordinaries” in the area having served as such, as inn and hostelry' since before young George Washington came here in 1749 to help survey the Lord Fairfax holdings. It.is now the home of Charles and Frances Eldred and France’s father, Paul Walker. The broad pine floors of the living room/dining room are the same ones on which young George Washington dined and danced. Here is a chance to take a step into history. The north end of the building houses “Washington House Reproductions” operated by Mr. Eldred, a nation ally recognized maker of fine period lighting fixtures. Examples of needlepoint by members of the Trinity Church Needlework Guild will be on display and for sale at Washington House. Other houses on the tour include the 18th Century home of Herman and Carol Beard on Rt. 622 and the contemporary “Home Base” of Judge Rayner and Lois Snead on Salem Avenue in Washington. Also open during the weekend will be the Rappahannock County Historical Society building on Gay Street and the Washington Museum on Porter and Main , Streets. For further information contact^ D.C. Knuepfer, Route !, Box 1080, Washington, Va. 22747 or call (703) 675-3744.

Although we’ve had a very dry fall, rain in the amount of 4 1/2 inches fell Friday night as a result of Hurricane Marco. Amissville Fire and Rescue volunteers were out early Saturday morning on a water rescue call. I have never seen anything as ! unusual as we witnessed recently ! here at the farm. Canadian geese on i the pond began a big fuss. We saw a i hawk circling and crossing the pond, j Suddenly, he dived straight into the ! water and came up with a fish. Next j time I hope I’m quicker with the i camera. The duck that had been fly- ] ing with the flock of geese has disap- j peared, maybe he was “expelled.” Some local residents were out j last Saturday trying their luck with ! the bow and arrow for deer. They ! are moving around now. Please be j alert for them, especially on many of i our back roads, from dusk to dawn. If you’re missing a pet pigeon, j we’ve had a rust-colored, with white ; tail, hanging around for a couple of i weeks. Barbara and Charlie Gore have ! returned from a trip to Pennsylva- ! nia. Congratulations to Mr. Travis Wesley Wiley who plans to wed Alice Rae Brown of Lignum on Oct. 13. j Have a great week and call me I with your news at 937-5024.

Massanova Pentecostal Church recently celebrated its 64th Homecoming. I recall as a child, when we lived in Centreville, of attending their homecomings once a year, and hearing “Mother Whorton” and her family sing “Meeting in the Air.” My uncle Robert McGlothlin preached on Saturday night a month and then my dad did for many years. Our very dear friends Roy and Bayliss Whorton and their families were living in | By CATS* UHI SMITH Centreville at the time, too. I hope I can soon visit the old church.

It can dispel your loneliness, lift your spirits, banish your worries, and transport you into another time and place. And books literally have the power to change your life. They can stimulate your intellect, arouse your curiosity. They can lead you into more profitable and exciting work. Without the power of books, we would not know of past man and past civilizations. We would not know the creations of mankind throughout his long history of inspiration and strength. One immortal book offers you beauty, hope and inspiration—more than any other. It is the story of both what has been and what will be . a book of promises fulfilled and fulfillment yet to come. This is God's word. Go find this book!

Lewis, a member of the DAR State Speakers Staff, whose subject was: “The Lady Camp Followers of the Revolutionary War.” Women were all around the battlefields and from all walks of life — daring, astute, ingenious and determined participants adapting to any situation. They were likened to the USO and the Red Cross; visiting hospitals and comforting and caring for the wounded; visiting dungeons with food for the captives; growing gram and preparing food for families and prisoners; spying on the British and stealing their supplies; burying the dead after battles. Mrs. Lewis named numerous individuals with their contributions to the war effort, all patriotic, brave and fearless. The “We Care” campaign, sponsored by this chapter and started by Mrs. Edgar F. Puryear Jr. was reported on by her. All families with servicemen in Saudi Arabia are urged to give the names and addresses to their local papers. She also displayed a pin with a yellow ribbon which can be purchased from her. Mrs. Eastham read the President General’s message in which Mrs. Yochim, President, called upon all 200,000 members of the NSDAR to continue the task of preserving the legacy of the past one hundred years for the next years to come. The Registrar, Mrs. Dale Metzinger, presented five names of prospective members who were accepted by vote of the chapter. They will become full-fledged DAR members after their credentials, proving a direct line to a participant in the Revolutionary War, are-approved by the National Committee. Plans for the SAR-DAR annual banquet on Dec. 18 were given, which will be held this year at the Culpeper Holiday Inn with this chapter as hostess. The next meeting will be Nov. 13 at the Culpeper United Methodist Church at 1:30 with Mrs. Edward W. Schaefer as speaker who will give an account of married life in the 1850’s of the John Y. Mason family in Richmond. Sperryville news notes Mr. and Mrs. George W. Hawkins were Sunday dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Codding in Fairfax.
